(Anti-Allergenic, fully breathable sleep surface)
The mattress will not fit the following:
Very good mattress, baby loves it. Sleeps well at night and doesn't get to hit out child.
The product is a metal frame with fabric stretched around the frame which we found odd to start with not your standard 'mattress', this does make the mattress dip slightly in the middle but hasn't caused any problems with my twin girls and gives the added piece of mind knowing that as the girls start to roll over they are safe breathing through the mattress.
After alot of research and consideration we decided to buy this product for our baby. We moved him into his cot at 9 weeks as he out grew the moses basket. I loved the concept of this product especially as the room temperature and him being too hot has been a real concern of ours. It's easy to assemble and seems comfy although I do worry that it's not a soft matress and wonder if when he gets older he won't sleep well in it. I put him in a grow bag and he sleeps soundly enough but when he wakes for his night feed his hands are freezing cold! I know babies hands do get cold but his are like ice blcoks and his face is always cold too. After reading the other reviews on here I am going to try putting a sheet under the matress to stop the draft and hopefuly this will help when the nights are cold. I can imagine this is a godsend on those hot summer nights though so a pro as well as a con. For piece of mind with a newborn I would definately recomend this product but I can imagine in a year or so's time we will be buying a new solid mattress but I may be wrong.
My baby slept well in this at first but he is now 5 months old and after 4 weeks of him suddenly waking every half hour I realised it was the mattress! Last night I tried him on a different mattress and he slept the whole night. You have to constantly tighten the mattress otherwise it does not offer any support for baby. My baby always seemed to feel cold too, even in the hot summer months. I would only recommend this for babies with allergies, otherwise I would say stick to a normal mattress. Baby will be much more comfortable and cosy and sleep for longer!
The mattress does slightly resemble some mechano and a piece of netting BUT the assembly is super easy and the netting easily secured. It looks and feels good and fits the ocean cot from Mamas and Papas perfectly. Real test will be seeing if the baby sleeps in it I guess!! One negative comment would be the taughtness of the material. Whilst I understand why it has to be so secure. I am not sure I would be able to remove it for recommended weekly washing on my own! Another blue task I think!!

There used to be a device...might have been called a "green plug" or something, that you plugged an appliance like an air conditioner or refrigerator, and by supposedly clipping the sine wave, you got the same performance at lower watts.
Now, I mostly heard that this was smoke and mirrors, and in fact may damage a motor. I would not use it. But I am now being asked to find such a device for the wall A/C in a hotel ( 240VAC, 20 amp units.)
My question is this: does anyone have a reference to a good technical article debunking the devices, or...???

Pina Colada milkshakes and killer dogs – George's is clean, has a good menu, and permits you to eat in or out. Woodland setting. Playground. More than a dozen flavors of milkshakes. Don't let your eyes be bigger than your stomach. A dog and a milkshake (they are large) will stuff you plenty so don't buy that big homemade cookie untill after you've finished the meal. Burp.
Cute place to bring the kids in the fall. Eat inside or outside. Play area for kids. Curly fries and milkshakes are amazing.

THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF VARIABLE STAR OBSERVERS 25 Birch Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA BITNET: aavso@cfa SPAN: cfa::aavso INTERNET: email@example.com TeL 617-354-0484 FAX 617-354-0665 AAVSO ALERT NOTICE 197 (January 27,1995) OBSERVATIONS OF CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES FOR ASTRO-2, EUVE, VOYAGER, AND ASCA SATELLITES The NASA satellite Astro-2 is scheduled to be launched from the space shuttle on March 1, 1995. We have been invited to participate in this mission and play a key role in its success. Astro-2 is a follow up to Astro-1, which was launched from the space shuttle in December of 1990, and to which we made significant contributions in the observations of cataclysmic variables. The Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope. (HUT), part of Astro-2, will be observing cataclysmic variables both in outburst and in quiescence during the mission, and for the first time, three other satellites - Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE), Voyager, and the Japanese ASCA - will be observing these stars simultaneously with Astro-2 during these times. Thus, this will be the first time that cataclysmic variables will be observed simultaneously from x-ray through extreme ultraviolet and far ultraviolet to ultraviolet wavelengths. The instruments aboard the satellites are ideal for studying the structure and evolution of the disk and winds in dwarf novae through outburst, the boundary layer in cataclysmic variables, and the temperature, size, and accretion column of the white dwarf component of magnetic cataclysmic variables like AM Her. We have been asked to monitor closely the stars chosen for this mission and listed below, and to inform the astronomers involved as soon as any of these stars go into outburst. 0058+40 RX And 0409-71 VW Hyi 1247-28 EX Hya 0139+37 AR And 0749+22 U Gem 1813+49 AM Her 0207-63 WX Hyi 0804+28 YZ Cnc 1934+30 EM Cyg 0219+27 RW Tri 0814+73 Z Cam 2138+43 SS Cyg 0309-22 EF Eri The highest priority targets are VW Hyi, WX Hyi, and YZ Cnc, although the others may also be observed. We have been in communication with the astronomers involved with this mission for the past several months, and we have provided extensive observations for use in mission simulations. We will be giving the astronomers an update on the behavior of these stars on February 21. Please monitor these stars closely from February 13 to March 17, and call in your observations, using the charge-free number (800-642-3883) at AAVSO Headquarters, or send email to email@example.com. Early observations are needed for the updates, and particularly after the satellite is launched on the shuttle on March 1. The day-to-day observations of these stars will be crucial to schedule the observations with Astro-2 and the other satellites. We will be in close communication with the astronomers from mid- February to the end of the mission. If you need charts for any of the stars below, please let us know, and we will send them to you at no charge. You, our observers, played a major role during the Astro-1 mission in the observations during the outburst of Z Cam. Through your early alerts and close monitoring, a very interesting set of observations was obtained on this star, in that astronomers detected forbidden oxygen VI lines that indicated a much hotter disk (see AAVSO Newsletter 8, July 1991). Your contribution to the forthcoming Astro-2 mission is even more important and is truly vital! Astro-2, EUVE, Voyager, and ASCA will be pointed to observe the stars that YOU inform us are in outburst or in quiescence, so your contribution is absolutely crucial, and your timely communications are anxiously awaited. REMINDER REGARDING OUTBURST OF 0749+22 U GEMINORUM Please continue to monitor U Gem closely, and call in or email your observations to AAVSO Headquarters when it goes into outburst, so that observations can be scheduled with the Hubble Space Telescope for the quiescent period following the outburst. The answering machine at AAVSO Headquarters is on during nights and weekends for your convenience. Many thanks for your observations and vital astronomical contributions to variable star research. Good observing! Janet A. Mattei Director

Audubon Guide to Hawk Watching
Ten awesome places to catch one of nature's greatest spectacles.
1. Hawk Mountain
Kempton, Pennsylvania
A beautiful setting and a rich history make this a must-visit destination for raptor fans. When northwest winds strike the Kittatinny Ridge, they create updrafts. Migrating raptors in fall can ride these cushions of rising air for miles, gliding effortlessly toward the south-southwest, then connecting to other ridges along the Appalachian chain as they continue their journeys. The exposed knobs of Hawk Mountain once served as a vantage point for shooters, but in 1934 this became a refuge for birds of prey, and binoculars and notebooks replaced the guns. Today the Hawk Mountain Sanctuary Association offers year-round nature education and coordinates global research and conservation projects. Click here for more information.
2. Cape May
New Jersey
Southern New Jersey points south between Delaware Bay and the Atlantic like an angular wedge. In fall, migrating birds of all kinds funnel down to the tip at Cape May Point, presenting some of the best autumn birding in North America. On days when northwest winds follow a cold front, hundreds or even thousands of southbound raptors may pass overhead. Sharp-shinned hawks are the most numerous, but the point is also famous for ospreys, merlins, peregrine falcons, and others. The big hawkwatch platform at Cape May Point State Park, where the New Jersey Audubon Society conducts the official count, provides one of the most popular places to witness migration, learn raptor ID, and catch up on the latest bird sightings. Click here for more information.
3. Holiday Beach Migration Observatory
Detroit River Hawk Watch
Spanning hundreds of miles along the Canadian border, the Great Lakes represent a barrier for migrating hawks, most of which avoid traveling over open water when they can. Bottlenecks form where the raptors go around or between the lakes. One such point is in far southern Ontario, where raptors move along Lake Erie's north shore until they cross the border into Michigan and turn southward again. These two hawkwatch sites, a few miles apart on either side of the international border, provide different lookouts for seeing the same raptors streaming by. Tens of thousands of hawks and falcons fly past every fall, highlighted by big flights of broad-wings in September. This spectacle is readily accessible to urbanites in Detroit, Toledo, and Windsor. Click here for more information on Ontario's hawk watch, and here for more info on the Detroit River Hawk Watch.
4. Florida Keys Hawk Watch
Curry Hammock State Park, Florida
Because the Florida Keys comprise a string of islands that essentially dead-ends at Key West, the discovery of such a major hawk migration here was something of a surprise, but this destination is now known for good flights each fall. Some stars of the show include raptors that do not hesitate to cross open water, including peregrine falcons (with some of the largest flights ever recorded anywhere) and ospreys (averaging more than a thousand each autumn). However, the watch also records surprising numbers of other species, such as sharp-shinned hawks and broad-winged hawks. You might have the chance to see some subtropical raptors, including swallow-tailed kites and short-tailed hawks. For anyone who tires of watching hawks, the beach is only a few steps away. Click here for more information.
5. Hawk Ridge
Duluth, Minnesota
Raptors coming out of Canada, hitting Lake Superior's long north shore, mostly follow it toward the west-southwest. At the lake's western end, the high ridge above Duluth is the perfect spot to see the raptors parade past before they turn the corner and fan out toward the south. Shooters dominated the site until the precursor of the Duluth Audubon Society led the effort to gain protection for the land and the birds. Today thousands of people come to Hawk Ridge Nature Reserve to watch the raptors and partake in educational programs. In late fall this is one of the best places on the continent to see numbers of northern goshawks. Click here for more information.
6. Hazel Bazemore County Park
Corpus Christi, Texas
Though many small songbirds will fly across the Gulf of Mexico in migration, the overwhelming majority of raptors opt for detouring around it. Vast numbers of hawks from eastern North America, headed for tropical destinations, shift westward to bypass the Gulf via the Texas coastal plain. A low bluff above the Nueces River at this county park affords a good platform for scanning the skies, and HawkWatch International has done regular full-season counts here since 1997. Broad-winged hawks make up the bulk of the flight, but records show more than two dozen other raptor species wing through. This hawkwatch is credited with the largest known migration tallies north of the Mexican border. Click here for more information.

"This card was beautiful. Everyone loved it! I used it as a thank you/birth announcement for my 2 month old christening and for family/freinds who had given us a gift when he was born. I included pictures on the front of my 2 month old by himself and two pictures on the back with his big brother. I like the square sized card. As well added the shimmer. Looks elegant. Love the card and love working with tiny prints.i included a picture because when I read reviews I enjoy seeing the product the customer actual has in hand."
"Great way to announce your baby! Our friends and family loved the cards. Excellent quality. Great layout. It covers all the information you would want to include, and you don't have to figure out the layout yourself!! I loved the square card, and used the regular postage envelope option. Even the envelopes are great quality. Highly recommended!"
"This birth announcement was a huge hit with family and friends. The print was beautiful and turned out exactly as it looked on the computer. The pictures also look incredible. I have to admit that we did use "professional" photos in ours.... a hospital-based photographer visited us while we were still in the hospital to snap our photos. This made choosing the pictures very easy. We chose an up-close, color photo for the main picture at the top, and we chose two black and white photos for the bottom (one of our son's little feet and the other of his head being held in my husband's hands). I'm so glad I went with this card."
"We ordered this announcement after the birth of our son. It was perfect...simple and classic. I was looking for an announcement that did not say "introducing" since we were a little late get these out. The "say hello to" was exactly what I was looking for. I picked a picture with a lighter background so the white font was a little difficult to see, but that was my own choosing. Overall, highly recommend this announcement."
"I love this announcement. The paper quality is a nice weight and the colors are vibrant. We mixed black and white photos and color. We used one color photo of baby and whole family and the rest black and white. The combination really looked nice."

I got exactly the personalization that I wanted
A Photo Booth Save the Date Postcards I was very happy with the way this card turned out. I had several things that I wanted to add and delete and it was no problem! The associate that was assigned to my order did exactly what I requested. Thank you Magnet Street for offering to do that. Makes a bride very happy! I do wish that a personalized sample of this item could be ordered. What I did was order the sample of this card and then ordered a personalized sample of this style in the smaller size. That way I could at least see what it probably would look like. The only thing I would advise is that the higher quality of the photos you use vs. camera phone photos, the better the card is going to look.
Came out great. Couldn't be happier.
A Photo Booth Save the Date Postcards They looked exactly how they did online. Very happy with the results!
Great magnet
Formal Elegance Save the Date Magnets Final product was great - Love the size of the magnet, layout and quality. Our friends love them! I liked being able to customize the font and color, but it would be nice to be able to adjust the size of the font and pictures a little more, too. If I had left the font at the default size, it would have been WAY too small to read easily. I increased the size of the font as high as it would allow and it still seemed a little smaller than expected on the final product.
Would recommend without question!
Formal Elegance Save the Date Magnets I don't very often leave reviews but I was so thrilled with these Save the Date magnets I felt obligated to do so! I was worried at first b/c I hadn't ordered a sample so I wasn't sure about the quality but then they arrived I was pleasantly surprised! The price was reasonable, extra clean looking envelope having return address printed on them (worth the change), extra class with a silver foil lined envelope, the magnets themselves look amazing - beautiful color quality, classy layout, edges were clean and straight, nice semi matte finish - they were delivered quickly and I received tracking immediately - and they arrived in a beautiful box I will be using throughout the rest of my wedding planning! Truly love them and believe this company will do a great job for you as well!
Great Quality
Formal Elegance Save the Date Magnets Some save the date magnets are thin, flimsy and start curling at the edges in a few months- I was very pleased to see that these magnets were of nice thick quality and seemed like they would hold up for the entire 9 months they will be on our guests fridge!

A cornea transplant is a surgical procedure to replace part of your cornea with corneal tissue from a donor. Your cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped surface of your eye that accounts for a large part of your eye's focusing power.
A cornea transplant can restore vision, reduce pain and improve the appearance of a damaged or diseased cornea. A cornea transplant, also called keratoplasty, is typically performed as an outpatient procedure.
Most cornea transplant procedures are successful. But cornea transplant carries a small risk of complications, such as rejection of the donor cornea.
A cornea transplant is most often used to restore vision to a person who has a damaged cornea. A cornea transplant may also relieve pain or other signs and symptoms associated with diseases of the cornea.
A number of conditions can be treated with a cornea transplant, including:
Cornea transplant is a relatively safe procedure. Still, a cornea transplant does carry a small risk of serious complications, such as:
In some cases, your body's immune system may mistakenly attack the donor cornea. This is called rejection, and it may require treatment or another cornea transplant.
Make an appointment with your eye doctor if you notice any signs and symptoms of rejection, such as:
Rejection occurs in about 20 percent of cornea transplants. Put another way, for every 10 people receiving cornea transplants, two people can expect to experience rejection of the donor cornea.
Before cornea transplant surgery, you will undergo:
Most corneas used in cornea transplants come from deceased donors. Unlike with other organs, such as livers and kidneys, people needing cornea transplants generally don't have to endure long waits. That's because nearly all people can donate their corneas after they die, so more corneas are available for transplant compared with other organs.
On the day of your cornea transplant, you'll be given a sedative to help you relax and a local anesthetic to numb your eye. You won't be asleep during the surgery, but you shouldn't feel any pain.
During the most common type of cornea transplant (penetrating keratoplasty), your surgeon cuts through the entire thickness of the abnormal or diseased cornea to remove a small button-sized disc of corneal tissue. An instrument that acts like a cookie cutter (trephine) is used to make this precise circular cut.
The donor cornea, cut to fit, is placed in the opening. Your surgeon then uses a fine thread to stitch the new cornea into place. The stitches may be removed at a later visit when you see your eye doctor.
With some types of cornea problems, a full-thickness cornea transplant isn't always the best treatment. Partial-thickness (lamellar) transplants may be used in certain situations. These types of procedures include:
Once your cornea transplant is completed, you can expect to:
Most people who receive a cornea transplant will have their vision at least partially restored. But what you can expect after your cornea transplant depends on the reason for your surgery and your health conditions.
Your risk of complications and cornea rejection continues for years after your cornea transplant. For this reason, expect to see your eye doctor annually. Cornea rejection can often be managed with medications.
Your vision may initially be worse than before your surgery as your eye adjusts to the new cornea. It may take several months for your vision to improve.
Once the outer layer of your cornea has healed — several weeks to several months after surgery — your eye doctor will work to make adjustments that can improve your vision, such as:

Few WH are designed for continuous use. Getting one big enough for both heating and WH use will not be inexpensive, either. If by open, you mean that your potable water goes through the heating loops, don't do that. The cost of bronze pumps and special fittings to keep heavy metals from entering your potential drinking water are both costly, and may not be allowed in your area; not counting the potential health issues. Constantly adding oxygenated water to a heating system means much more wear; best to isolate the potable from heating.
A modulating boiler and indirect will likely be more efficient and last longer.

Child Development
Saddleback Child Development Department is proud to be one of very few community colleges to offer a complete online child development program.
Online Learning
Our online courses are designed to allow students to make the most of their time without sacrificing quality education.
All Child Development courses are offered in an online format within every two year period. Students may choose to use all online, all on campus, or a mixture of each to complete their certificate requirements.
Applying what is learned to real life settings is an integral part of our program and our online child development courses do involve child observations in a variety of activities so online students must be prepared to find early childhood settings near them to visit regularly during the duration of their courses.
How Online Classes Work
Instead of attending lectures on campus, online students attend "virtual" classrooms via the Internet.
Saddleback Child Development instructors use the Blackboard course development system that allows the instructor to post assignments, syllabi, and course outlines. In addition, the applications allow the use of several communication tools such as discussion boards, chat rooms and email.
Some instructors require face-to-face meetings (most often a first day orientation or final exam), but many courses are completely online. Please refer to the Schedule of Classes for any special requirements.
Learning materials vary from class to class, but may include textbooks, video demonstrations, Power Point presentations, interactive lessons, and Web resources.
Learning activities may include writing papers, posting comments or essays to online discussion forums, completing individual or group projects, visiting children's settings for observations or participation and taking quizzes.
While students can choose when and where they work, there are usually deadlines for homework and exams.
Students interact with their instructor and classmates via web discussion forums, e-mail, chat sessions, and phone calls.
How to get started:
While each instructor sets up their classes a little differently, for the most part our online classes have many things in common.
Students apply and register for online courses in the same way they do for on campus courses.
All courses use the Blackboard course delivery system. Check system requirements.
For more information about individual courses, contact the current instructor of the course. Check the current schedule.

I've been looking "everywhere" for this filter for our Duracraft cool air humidifier,
and I am so pleased to have found it again. This sturdy filter acts as a "wick,"
similar to a sponge, to bring cool water up to the fan area. As the air passes
through it, moisture is released into the air. Very effective!
it does the job
....kinda. Not quite the right size but it was way too dificult on the web site to find the right one. The filter itself was OK. I got what I paid for.
Duracraft Humidifier filter
Product arrived quickly and was exactly as described. I had searched several websites for the right filter at a fair price. What I found was a multitude of ads but found Kaz to have exactly what I was looking for at a price that I thought was fair. Shipping was quick and the product was well packaged.

John & Michele in the Morning
After 15 years, we're down to the last week. July 12, 2013 will be the last show for John & Michele in the Morning. There's nothing scandalous to report...sorry!
John will continue his reign as Springfield's morning show king, but he'll just be doing it with someone new.
Michele is moving on to a new phase of her career in the radio business. She'll still be in Springfield and still with Neuhoff Media, however instead of being on the air she's going to be focusing on all things digital. It's been a great 15 years, and John & Michele plan to spend this last week reminiscing with guests and playing some of the best moments of the past.
Michele would LOVE to hear from you this week. Write on the

Order in the next 0 hours 52 minutes for express home delivery on Friday
Storage is key for organising any unruly mess, particularly when it comes to the endless array of children's books, games and toys that get left in each room of the house!
If you've run out of space and your storage boxes and baskets are full to the brim, then you can easily make use of the walls.
An immediate, cost-effective idea would be to fix a Toy Hammock to hold all those soft toys and teddy bears in place! Not only will this keep them off the floor, but it'll also make a really nice, safe display in your child's bedroom or nursery.
Was easy to assemble as my walls didn't need to be drilled so just put the hooks straight it, (comes with 3 hooks but not wall plugs) very big and easily stored all my sons teddies instead of in the cot
Great item bought for my daughters room to keep teddies in as she loves them. Looks nice too.
I needed something to display my boys important teddies that we didn't want destroyed through play. This was perfect! It's ideal for any size room because it's designed for corners. It wouldn't hold all of my boys collection but enough to hold the few I wanted it for.
Great storage solution for soft toys, holds more than I thought.
Absolutely wonderful product.Easy to set up and is strong, safe and sturdy. My kids teddies and soft toys are no longer taking over their beds and my kids are sleeping a lot better through the night. I bought two and have assembled one above each corner of their bunk bed so they can easily take a toy they want by themselves and also put back. These hammocks are very spacious and do carry a lot of teddies. Great value for money. Very pleased with this product. Excellent service from Kiddicare as always.

Your Tech Questions Answered!
Go-Fast Cadi
Q I am looking to buy a 4x4. I am excited to build something cool, and even though I have a wife and two small boys I've saved up some money to build the perfect desert truck for me. I'm into four-wheeling, but I'm not dedicated to any one brand. So I thought I'd ask you for advice.
I need the following. A truck bed, not huge, but big enough to haul wife, kid, and home project stuff. I need four doors. The boys are small but growing like weeds, so a regular cab or extended cab isn't going to work. I want a gas V-8 engine. I know diesels are better fuel economy, but I've never had a healthy V-8 and always wanted one. Plus, there aren't really that many diesel fuel stations near my house in the suburbs (I know, I looked). I need something kind of new. I have a good job and I have to haul clients around with me now and then, so I can't show up in some cool old farm truck. I wish I could, but I can't. Plus, my wife told me she's all on board for this project, if the truck is still nice to drive, haul the family in, and comfortable. I can't argue with her, happy wife equals happy life, they say. I agree.
So those are the requirements, and here are my goals. I want a go-fast desert truck. I want something we can bomb down dirt roads in. I don't care about rockcrawling; I don't care about mud whompin', boggin', or sloggin'; and I have no interest in overlanding stuff. Though I will admit we might camp from this truck, all we need is our tent, cooler, and four duffle and sleeping bags. No rooftop tents or special camping espresso machines for us. In fact, all I really want is a good daily driver that is also a good prerunner type truck.
I want to build a really cool 9-inch rear axle, I want King shocks, I want the BFGoodrich Baja–type tires, and some black Walker Evans beadlock wheels. Yes, I know these are all the poser upgrades, but I've always wanted them and I really think they are probably good parts in addition to being trendy. I have a good budget to buy and build this perfect truck, but I'm kind of stumped on which one to choose. Which would you build if you were in my shoes?
Via firstname.lastname@example.com
A I admit I'm more of a trail wheeler than a desert rat, per se. I love the desert—don't get me wrong—but I really like rockcrawling, mud bogging, and trucks that get all twisted up off-road. However, I have been considering a go-fast buildup recently, and you may be the perfect guy to build this wacky creation I've dreamt up. You need a…Cadillac.
OK, I'm sure you think I'm nuts on this one, but hear me out. The Cadillac I think you should look at is the Escallade EXT, the one that looks like a Chevy Avalanche. Except that unlike the half-ton Avalanche the EXT comes with a 6.0L or 6.2L V-8 engine, either of which should fulfill your goal of a healthy V-8 ranging from high-300 to low-400 hp, even better with a good cold air intake and exhaust. There was a big-block version of the Avalanche 2500, but I actually think you'd like the linked rear suspension of the EXT better than the leaf springs in the back of the 3⁄4-ton. Plus, the big-block is heavy; the latest 6.2L V-8 is all aluminum. The combination of IFS front and five-linked rear solid axle under coil springs makes for a very smooth-riding and capable 4x4. In fact, Dodge half-tons have a similar rear suspension now. Plus, unlike a pickup truck that has a separation between the cab and bed, the EXT and Avalanche have no gap there, in effect strengthening the entire body and frame and making it a more rigid chassis. This is a bonus for a go-fast desert truck because then the suspension will do the work and you won't get the bending of chassis and banging of cab to bed that can happen with severe abuse to a pickup.
The EXT does have a few downfalls, the first being no low-range transfer case. It does have all-wheel drive, and you can lock the center diff in the transfer case, but no low range. This wouldn't be a hard transfer case upgrade to make, but you might not ever need low range as a go-fast desert guy. In fact, the all-wheel drive may actually add to the fun off-road. The rear axle on these trucks is the AAM 9.5 semifloater. This is a pretty strong axle and could remain under there with a 35- to 37-inch tire.
Then there is all the body cladding, which is bad-looking but is mostly on the front and rear bumpers, not the sides like the early Avalanche.
And of course there's the cost. These trucks seem to range in price from $9,000 to $50,000. Of course I'd recommend an '07 or newer version with the 6.2L V-8 and the six-speed 6L80E transmission just for power and strength, instead of the earlier 6.0L and 4L60 four-speed automatic, but the later models will likely cost more.
To this truck I would add a long-travel IFS front suspension, maybe like the one from Blitzkrieg Motorsports (www.blitzkriegoffroad.com) or Brenthal (brenthel industries.com). I think I would find a quality desert shop to build an in-cab cage for the safety of the wife and kiddos. Some of them can put the cage up above the headliner—better safe than sorry. Adding King shocks to the front and back wouldn't be too hard. In fact, you could even replace the rear coils and run the shocks up into the bed if you wanted coilover shocks in the rear, but that may ruin your hauling ability. The midship fuel tank hinders building a normal upper triangulated four-link suspension without moving it, but you could put a fuel cell or other tank behind the rear axle and remove the stock tank. This will add complexity, but I feel that four-link suspensions cycle a little better than the stock-style five-link with track bar.
For such a truck I would think 35s to 37s would be just fine, but the 35s will reduce weight and improve speed while making it easier for daily driving and loading. I have not driven on the BFGoodrich Baja T/A tires you covet, but I have heard they are very stout off-road, though not the best for a daily drive. However, I have had great results with my BFG KM2 Mud-Terrains and Krawlers. Of course, a prerunner bumper and some big lights or an LED light bar would look good up front, and violà! You have a go-fast off-road Escalade. In fact, SMP Fabworks (www.smp-fabworks.com) is building one right now for a customer!
I hope my crazy idea doesn't sound too far out of the box, and fulfills all your goals.
Q I have a '93 Toyota pickup 4x4 regular cab 22RE automatic with 189,000 miles, and the transmission recently went out. I want to replace it with a manual. I was wondering if it's possible and what all would need to be done to make it happen, or if someone makes a kit to make it easier.
Montgomery, AL
A It is possible, but you'll want to delete everything from behind the engine. The automatic and transfer case all need to go, and it would be best to start with the same era truck for all the needed parts such as pedals, transmission, transfer case, and bellhousing. You'll also need new driveshafts, a clutch, a clutch master cylinder, and a clutch slave cylinder. I do not know of a complete kit, but Marlin Crawler (www.marlincrawler.com) specializes in transmissions and transfer cases if you want a professionally rebuilt unit, or you could find all these parts from a local junkyard. You'll spend less in the long run just rebuilding your transmission, but the manual will make the four-cylinder more responsive and fun to drive.
If it was us, we would take this opportunity to add dual transfer cases for even more low-range crawl ratio.

Can your cell phone hurt you? How does NASA launch rockets? Using a limited number of mini-marshmallows and toothpicks, could you engineer a structure that can bear the weight of more than 150 pennies?
These and other questions were explored in a series of presentations and hands-on experiments Saturday at the College of Lake County in Grayslake during the Science Technology Engineering Mathematics (STEM) Day for Girls.
The annual program's goal is to increase interest in science and engineering careers among girls in middle school and high school.
"I have strong feelings about this. I think we tell young women the wrong things and keep them out of these types of careers," said Michelle Leonard, an engineer, CLC instructor and department chair.
"When people think of engineering, they think of video games and better TVs. The kinds of things that interest boys. But it's not just video games, I assure you. It includes medical advances and a lot of things that are interesting for girls," she said.
Leonard presented a program with the title Call Me, Maybe (an intriguing nod to the hit song by Carly Rae Jepsen) that included three simple experiments to help participants determine the level of potential health risks associated with cell phone use.
The tests pointed toward the conclusion that risks, based on the level and type of radiation emitted from the devices, are very low, but that long-term data is not in and texting provides less direct exposure than talking on the phone while it is held against your head.
One of the tests involved using a radio frequency meter to measure the volume of radio waves emitted during a call as opposed to a text message.
"It's been fun. I learned a lot," said Ericka Arteaga, a sophomore at Round Lake High School, who is considering a science career. "It's been a new learning experience for me."
"I love this class, it's really interesting," said Emma Mesar, a high school student from Princeton, Ill., who got up at 4:30 a.m. with her dad to make the long drive to Lake County to take advantage of STEM Day and chose Call Me, Maybe as one of her activities.
"I use my cell phone much too much," she said before the experiments were completed. "If I thought about it too much, I'd probably scare myself," she said, adding that the STEM Day program presented a great opportunity for her because she hopes to find a career in science.
In addition to the presentations, which also included information on how emergency medical technicians respond to medical emergencies and a demonstrations on using lasers to etch materials, the day included hands-on workshops including the construction of model rockets to learn the process NASA uses to launch rockets, working to identify acids and bases through testing, and using toothpicks and marshmallows to explore load-bearing and structural engineering methodology .
"It's a wonderful program," said Sherry Brewton, whose daughter Adrianna, a Beach Park Middle School student, participated in the event. "Girls need a lot more push than boys in these fields."
CLC Associate Dean Jose Velarde said more than 120 students and more than 40 parents, from across Lake County and beyond, attended STEM Day for Girls this year, the third year CLC has participated in the program.
He said that while Thursday was national Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day, CLC has moved the grant-funded STEM Day to Saturdays in order to allow more girls to participate and to provide more time for the presentations and experiments.
The presenters at the event are all women with established careers in the subjects, another signal to the students that women can be successful in science and engineering fields, organizers said.

Rev. Henry Erskine, 1624 - 1696. Covenanting minister
- Scottish Art
A minister and preacher of great power, Henry Erskine was summoned to appear before the Lord Advocate, Sir George Mackenzie, for preaching in conventicles - secret, open-air meetings disliked by the Episcopalian wing of the Church of Scotland. Following the order from the Lord Advocate to stop, Erskine replied: "I have my commission from Christ, and though I were within an hour of my death I durst not lay it down at the feet of any mortal man." He was fined and sentenced to imprisonment on the Bass Rock.

Kellie Carriker spent nearly a decade in group sales before jumping over to her true passion: the spa. Now spa director at the Marriott Marco Island Beach Resort & Spa, Carriker oversees a brand-new, 24,000-square-foot facility. She's already implemented some new ideas with groups in mind.
CMI: Are groups using spas to their full potential?
Kellie Carriker: When I was a group sales manager, I noticed that the spa [environment] was not present throughout the resort. So I put together a group spa menu, everything from the 'mini-mani' to chair massages to spa meeting breaks. These spa options can enhance any group activity.
CMI: In other words, you're taking the spa to the attendee.
KC: Yes. For example, the mini-mani is a five-minute hand and arm massage followed by treatment with a body butter. We can create these body butters with any scent you choose. You might do it at a welcome reception and match the scents with cocktails such as a cranberry cosmo, champagne, or a caramel apple martini. For a dessert function, we've done crème brulee, key lime pie, cherries jubilee, you name it.
CMI: Are the men at corporate events lining up to get a mini-mani?
KC: Absolutely! We've also added two massages targeted to men: a sports massage and a golf massage.
CMI: How can meeting planners ensure that their spa appointments go smoothly?
KC: Block the appointments — or at least the time — far in advance. The last thing you want to do is promote the spa and then have attendees not get the treatment that they want.
CMI: How does your experience with the corporate incentive market help you to work with planners as spa director?
KC: Among the more challenging aspects of the meeting planner's job are outperforming previous meetings and creating the wow factor. Adding the mini-manis or booking a private yoga class on the beach can help to create lasting memories.
CMI: Are spa breaks catching on?
KC: We've had several groups looking for more healthful coffee breaks, hence the creation of the spa break. Add a chair massage, and you'll find a renewed, rejuvenated attendee walking into the next business session.
CMI: What are some spa break options?
KC: We have two: The Slim and Trim Spa Break, where we serve fruit smoothies made with low-fat yogurt; and the Jump Start Spa Break, where we serve protein smoothies and protein bars. Planners also can book a fitness instructor to lead attendees in a 15-minute de-stress and re-energize break.
CMI: Any budget-cutting tips to share with our readers?
KC: If you can push your business to our slower days (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday), you'll have a bit more leverage. We also do "one per 35": You get one complimentary treatment for every 35 booked. You can also book shorter treatments. You can do 25-minute back, neck, and shoulder massages instead of a 50-minute full massage, for example. Or you can create a customized menu of 50-minute treatments, all at a flat rate, for your attendees.

Kendall to discuss new police shooting range
By Steve Lord firstname.lastname@example.com February 12, 2013 3:44PM
Updated: March 14, 2013 6:32AM
YORKVILLE — Kendall County is looking at getting a new shooting range for its Sheriff's Department and other police departments in the county to use.
The shooting range would be built in a former quarry in Lisbon, near Route 47 and Joliet Road. A private company has offered to build the range for a nominal cost.
The County Board's Planning, Building and Zoning Committee this week discussed the matter. The board would have to approve a rezoning change and a text amendment to the zoning ordinance to allow the range.
The planning committee approved the text amendment, which would add shooting range as a special use to the M-2 and M-3 districts, which are both for manufacturing.
The committee also would change the proposed site to M-3 manufacturing.
County Board members are expected to discuss the measure Thursday when they meet as a Committee of the Whole.
Distillery zoning
The board on Thursday also will discuss amending the zoning ordinance to allow a micro-batch distillery for making whiskey — the first of its kind in the county.
The distillery is being proposed by Jason Leslie and Boyd Ingemunson, who own and operate Three Angels Brewing, a nano-brewery on 40 acres at Ashley and Caton Farm roads.
They are proposing their micro-batch distillery for the same property. The zoning change would allow them to make a limited amount of whiskey at the site.
As a nano-brewery, they already are limited to making 1,000 barrels of beer a year.
The county is looking at making a micro-batch distillery a permitted use in four zoning districts, A-1, an agricultural district, B-3, a business district, and M-1 and M-2, manufacturing districts.

THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS Comes to Philadelphia, 1/20-2/19
The landmark trial of the Scottsboro Boys is brought to life in Philadelphia Theatre Company's production of the multiple Tony-nominated musical The Scottsboro Boys with music and lyrics by the legendary team of John Kander and Fred Ebb and book by David Thompson, running January 20-February 19 at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre (Broad and Lombard Streets). The first production since its Broadway run, The Scottsboro Boys features original direction and choreography by Susan Stroman, recreated by Jeff Whiting, with original Broadway cast members Derrick Cobey, Rodney Hicks, KendRick Jones, Forrest McClendon, JC Montgomery and Clinton Roane. They are joined by new cast members Andrew Arrington, Gilbert L. Bailey II, Nile Bullock, Ron Holgate, and Eric Jackson and Philadelphians David Bazemore and Kaci Fannin.
Previews begin Friday, January 20 with Opening Night on Wednesday, January 25. Performances run Tuesday through Sunday until February 19. Tickets starting at $25 are available by calling the PTC Box Office at 215-985-0420 or visiting PhiladelphiaTheatreCompany.org. Philadelphia Theatre Company's Suzanne Roberts Theatre is located at Broad and Lombard Streets.
The Scottsboro Boys is a stirring and highly original musical that explores the infamous 1930's 'Scottsboro Case' in which a group of African-American teenagers are falsely accused of a terrible crime, ultimately provoking a national outrage that laid the groundwork for the American Civil Rights movement. The Scottsboro Boys is the definition of inspired American musical theater with a gorgeous and melodic score and rousing choreography.
"The Scottsboro Boys is about nine boys who are just trying to survive - to get a job, get back home, start a life. And, above all, prove to the world that they matter," said librettist David Thompson.
Continued Director/Choreographer Susan Stroman: "A uniquely American story about an important chapter of American history, The Scottsboro Boys is a story that still has relevance today. So many of those issues are unresolved, and threaten to remain so unless we engage in a dialogue about them. I look forward to working at Philadelphia Theatre Company. Our hope is this production will be a way to get the conversation started, and to carry it forward."
In addition to the standard Book Club and Meet-the-Artist post-show discussions, PTC is offering several events to illuminate the historical and contemporary relevance of The Scottsboro Boys. On January 22, WURD-AM will offer a live broadcast of a community conversation about how race plays a role in the criminal justice system, featuring panelists Michael Coard and Marc Lamont Hill. PTC will host American Playwrights in Context featuring a conversation with composer John Kander and book writer David Thompson on January 29. On February 15, PTC will collaborate with the Pennsylvania Innocence Project to present a Continuing Legal Education event featuring an in-depth look at the Scottsboro Case and the politics of injustice, with the Honorable Louis H. Pollak, son of one of the original ACLU lawyers defending the Scottsboro Boys and Dan T. Carter, author of Scottsboro: A Tragedy of the American South.

DevOps Days Atlanta
Event date: October 05, 2013 00:00
Date: October 5-6, 2013.
Shifting Left for Secure, Component-based Development
Cyberattacks are becoming more pervasive - think about the recent FBI advisory for the Struts exploit. Applications are the new threat vector of choice - Ponemon states that 90% of exploits are app related.
Applications are now constructed of open source components - Research shows an app now consists of 90% components. What's this got to do with DevOps?
- Some would say that DevOps is a reaction to Agile, which makes sense because DevOps is only going to be effective if it accommodates how apps are built today. That means supporting agile, component-based development.
- While organizations invest in network and perimeter security, application security is not a major focus. This focus needs to change based on the fact that cyberattacks are primarily focused on the application. DevOps is a great way to assimilate application security into the development process.
- The Struts example pulls it all together - it shows how applications are built from open source frameworks and components. The volume, dependency complexity, variety and release cadence of these components must be managed so organizations can realize the benefits of components while managing security, licensing and quality risk.
We'll use real life examples to cover the following topics in this session:
- What open source component-based development means to DevOps - how do components work in conjunction with agile development? How should DevOps create a release management process that can support components? How can DevOps ensure that applications can be built and delivery quickly while mitigating security, licensing and quality risk.
- Why DevOps is a natural fit for integrating security - the DevOps philosophy to drive communication and collaboration can be extended to include the security organization. Integrating the security team and security processes can be done as part of the overall DevOps approach.
- How the DevOps "shift left" approach can help improve and secure component-based development - if organizations can shift effort to the left, they can deliver applications more quickly and more cost effectively. We'll discuss how managing components effectively can prevent problems and allow flaws to be discovered and remediated early in the development lifecycle.

"Love this card! Tiny Prints customer service is beyond excellent. They created the card just the way I wanted it. I highly recommend using their free service of having one of their staff review your product before printing it. I used this card as a 6 month announcement for my daughter. On the front of the card I had them add her name, age, weight and height and on back of the card I had them add things she loves (i.e. her mommy & daddy, bath time, Sophie the Giraffe) along with another picture of her. I had the cards printed on white pearl shimmer paper with the rounded edges. Well worth the extra 10 cents/card. Will definitely be ordering from Tiny Prints again."
"I ordered this card with the rounded edges on the pearl paper. Well worth the extra couple of bucks! Couldn't be happier with my purchase. They arrived before the scheduled delivery date and the quality is fantastic."
"The card was a little smaller than I thought, but that is my fault for not reading the dimensions. I thought it would be a 5 x 7. I love the colors and the layout. I also put a picture on the backside from last year's birthday and it was so cute. I do recommend not using a picture that is too close up."
"We loved this invitation for our son's 3rd birthday party! I received so many compliments from the recipients - they said it looked like something that belonged in a magazine! What a great compliment for my trendy lil tot!"
"We used this invite for my son's first birthday and loved it! Tiny Prints customer service was great to coach me through choosing a different picture for clarity. We got many compliments on the invitation- very satisfied with this company and the product!"
